In today's episode of Handsome Doggies, I present to you my friend Goldilocks. 🐶⭐ Before he started posing for Maxim magazine here, this fellow was looking for sticks and leaves in the jungle. Now, I know what you're asking - "But Rohit, how do you get these puppers to pose so serenely for pictures?" Well, singing helps. Also, if they've been tackling and trying to basically jump onto your shoulders for fifteen minutes to calm down, that helps too. (There are plenty of outtakes from this shoot that I will inevitably be posting in the coming days and weeks, ...

We need the wilderness. The philosophical implications of being a world governed purely by an internal order aside, the wild nourishes us in a way almost nothing else can. It gives you a window into the real nature of things - a universe teeming with life and unfathomable forces. It reminds you that you are an organic entity, and you can sprout roots and grow branches in directions that might seem completely inaccessible right now. It reminds you that there's a way to think foundationally, to build from the inside out. We need the wilderness, ...

My lovely babies, my wanderers, my nomads. You're in the great game now. I hope you are doing well, and I hope there's lots of milk and biscuits for you to dunk your furry faces into. 🤗🐕 . . . . . #instagramdogs#petstagram

Here's some food for thought - ALL language is made up. Every thought, every turn of phrase and every beautiful sentence you've read or heard that has inspired you or kept you warm during cold nights, is made up.

"Once you understand The Way broadly, you can see it in all things." — Miyamoto Musashi, Circa 1600s Loosely translates to - The mastery of anything is the mastery of mastery itself. There is a force operating in the universe that wraps itself around the pursuits of those who understand The Way. We aren't exactly sure why this reality works the way it does, but we can't ignore this pattern in nature. There seems to be a template for becoming great at anything. Expertise is a skill in and of itself. The best painter is the best swordsman is ...

I amar prestar aen… (The world is changed.) Han mathon ne nen… (I feel it in the water.) Han mathon ne chae… (I feel it in the Earth.) A han noston ned gwilith… (I smell it in the air.) Lady Galadriel is talking about Middle-Earth, but she might as well have been the narrator for all of us, a bunch of misfits and malcontents who had taken to the open road in search of magic. There were several breath-taking moments on our journey to the magical land of Ziro, and this was one of them. After a night of absolute ...

Have you also learned that secret from the river; that there is no such thing as time? That the river is everywhere at the same time, at the source and at the mouth, at the waterfall, at the ferry, at the current, in the ocean and in the mountains, everywhere and that the present only exists for it, not the shadow of the past nor the shadow of the future. — Hermann Hesse, Siddhartha . . . . . #nature_brilliance #earthvisuals ...
